Help protect your dataTransparent data encryption

Extensible key management

Simplify complianceAll actions auditable

Enterprise-wide security policies

Encrypt data and log files

Transparent to application

Secure with Database Encryption Key (DEK)

Use encrypted data in another server

Client Application

Encrypted Data Page

Extensible key management

Simplify key management

Consolidate and simplify encryption across

the enterprise

Store keys in removable hardware such as USB drives

Help protect your data with transparent data encryption

Applications do not need to be aware of the encryption

Data is highly protected because encrypted database files cannot be read without the Database Encryption Key

Encryption keys can be exported and imported to trusted servers

Replication

Minimize planned downtime

Backup compression

Dynamically add resources

Online operations

Enhance concurrent data access

Database snapshots

Snapshot isolation levels

Failover clustering

Windows Server 2008 Clustering

Supports up to 16-node clusters

More than 1 drive letter per clustered SQL Server instance

Nodes can be on different subnets

Supports an OR relationship between dependencies (e.g. server name resource available when either IP address is available)

Windows Server 2008 Cluster Validation Tool

Quorum disk no longer a single point of failure

Database mirroring
